Before we begin the presentation of the awards, I'd like to start the annual PM game that will continue for the next 24 hours or so.
Send me, Darkness and Wings, a PM with as many words of 3 letters or more as you can find in "SPIRIT AWARD CEREMONY" and don't stress - you have 24 hours to find them.
It would make my life easier if you put your words in alphabetical order. but it's not required.

21 years ago this guild was founded. Since then we have had several amazing leaders, the most recent of which is JoyRose. Last year Joy decided to step down to regular crew. We miss her guidance and leadership, but are so grateful to still have her with us in any capacity
Thank you to everyone who has been part of this guild over the years.
A special thank you to FaereFae for taking over as vice captain and helping me to continue to honor the history and meaning that is The NSTG
